+/*****************************************************************************
+* Narrowing
+*****************************************************************************/
+/**
+ * narrow() is used to cast a wider type to a narrower type with validation.
+ *
+ * In many cases we take the size() of a container and try to pass it to an
+ * S32 or a U32 parameter. We used to be able to assume that the size of
+ * anything we could fit into memory could be expressed as a 32-bit int. With
+ * 64-bit viewers, though, size_t as returned by size() and length() and so
+ * forth is 64 bits, and the compiler is unhappy about stuffing such values
+ * into 32-bit types.
+ *
+ * It works to force the compiler to truncate, e.g. static_cast<S32>(len) or
+ * S32(len) or (S32)len, but we can do better.
+ *
+ * For:
+ * @code
+ * std::vector<Object> container;
+ * void somefunc(S32 size);
+ * @endcode
+ * call:
+ * @code
+ * somefunc(narrow(container.size()));
+ * @endcode
+ *
+ * narrow() truncates but, in RelWithDebInfo builds, it validates (using
+ * assert()) that the passed value can validly be expressed by the destination
+ * type.
